How to Make Low Fat Cake Mix Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy using an electric mixer.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the cake mix, ensuring it's fully incorporated into the wet ingredients.
  5. Gently fold in the chocolate chips (or other mix-ins).
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
